Description

P. 95. Blemishes of the mind and the problem of delusions. No matter what I have, I delude myself that I'll be happy when I have more; now that I have a billion, I'll finally, REALLY be happy when I have two billion! The notion of: "If Only..." When reality and delusions collide. More money, more honor, this girlfriend; if one of these desires is fulfilled, he'll simply move on to the next desire, because none of these will fill the emptiness in his life. The ONE thing missing from Adam and Chava's life. A lethal mistake at the Eitz Hada'as (Tree of Life). The grass is always greener on the other side - Pessach hotels, shidduchim, marriage, jobs, gan eden... Advertising is all dimyonos (delusions).
